About this deal

nessisonett I think I would have been more impressed by Super if I'd played it as a kid. I mean, it's still an incredible achievement, but having played it after Zero Mission and Fusion, it just doesn't feel particularly special to me. I prefer ZM's more adventure-y vibe over Super's gloom, and Fusion's scary SA-X encounters give it a better horror feel, IMO. I also think both GBA games have better bosses. My personal favorite is Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga. I was in elementary school when it came out and I only got it because we couldn't find Grunty's Revenge anywhere. I have to say I'm glad it turned out that way because Superstar Saga became one of my favorite games of all time. In my opinion it's simply perfect. Despite many other technologically-superior handheld consoles introduced during its lifetime, the Game Boy was a tremendous success. The Game Boy and Game Boy Color combined have sold 118.69 million units worldwide. Upon its release in the United States, it sold its entire shipment of one million units within weeks.

Super Mario advance" was way too low, it's my favourite 2D Mario (I bought it day 1, along with my GBA), it deserves to be... well, at least top half of the list.Oh man, I completely forgot about Gunstar Super Heroes. I used to own that game, it was fantastic. It was lost along with my GBA SP during an incident many years ago, involving my tent blowing into a swamp along with all the contents therein. I tried to fish out what I could, but had a face to face encounter with a very large snapping turtle, at which point I decided he could keep my stuff. GBA was just fantastic, so many incredible games there. Everything had so much content considering the limitations. Really glad to see Mother 3 top, I loved my time with it and honestly wish the translators would get a wee bit of credit because their translation is synonymous with the game. This exhibit has a reference ID of CH4033. Please quote this reference ID in any communication with the Centre for Computing History. As for Mother 3, I dont know if it reached #1 because of the ever-maddening push to localize it, or if people really believe its one of the best GBA games of all time. Probably a little of both? It is a really good game, regardless.

I've played Metroid Prime a few times, and if you didn't have to do the Artifact hunt near the end, which completely destroys the pacing, it'd probably be one of my favorite GameCube games. But it pulls that Wind Waker BS by making you go on a tedious item hunt, and, frankly, it puts me off to the point where I don't even like replaying the game much anymore. I'm one of those people who'd opt for Zero Mission over Super. It's just a masterpiece, IMO. One of the few truly 10/10 games I've ever played. Shame games like Tekken Advance, Sonic Advance 3 didn't make it. I think Mario Kart SC is a bit too low.) Communication: Up to 2 Game Boys can be linked together via built-in serial ports, up to 4 with a DMG-07 4-player adapter. More than 4 players is possible by chaining adapters.E_Gadds_Garage Yeah, very odd, but I think I heard a lot of people consider it to be the worst Mario Kart. I'm a fan because it was like the spiritual successor to the original SNES game.

Ralizah Zero Mission really is incredible. I’m not sure I could separate that and Super Metroid but they’re my two favourite 2D games. I do prefer Prime 1 and 2 however.Muddy_4_Ever Agreed. It's the perfect length. I can play it in an afternoon and have an absolute blast. I also love the twist in the final chapter, and how that shakes up the gameplay. It definitely has my favorite last half-hour or so of any Metroid game. Not surprised the Mario games are ranked lower, due to their grating voice acting. That ruined the experience for me! Glad to see Metroid: Zero Mission in the top 3. I'll need to do some soul searching, but it's quite possibly my favorite Metroid title.
